九歌•山鬼（节选）
A Mountain Fairy (excerpted)
若有人兮山之阿，被薜荔兮带女萝。既含睇兮又宜笑，子慕予兮善窈窕。
One may you see that haunts the mountain combe, In kinle of clinging Fig-leaves frocked, girdled with trailing doddler's green.Lustrous-eyed is shet smiling fair; Of winsome niien and debonair.
乘赤豹兮从文狸，辛荑车兮结桂旗； 被石兰兮带杜衡， 折芳馨兮遗所思。
Her team of brinded panthers driving, followed by ratcls streaked, she moves In chariot hewn of sapan-wood with flags of cinnamon, Wild dianthus all her gems, her hraid of winter-green,To gather posies of the field, a gift for him she loves.
